NUFC transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

Tomorrows papers reporting that were going to bid 12m for Townsend and hope to get the deal done early next week.

 

£10m too much.

Levy will want more.

Loan until the end of the season with option to buy in the summer if he impresses should be the only thing we offer.

I don't know why but I really like Townsend. :lol:

I don't think he's a bad player, but the idea of nailing him down as one of our 2 potential wingers for the next 4-5 years is really grim. That'll be the case if we're paying £12m unless he consistently performs so poorly that he's dropped.

I think Townsend is decent tbh. I'm not saying he'll come in and transform the team and score/create a load of goals but he's decent enough out there, not sure the £12m or whatever couldn't be better spent but he'd be another option and could mean moving Sissoko and/or Wijnaldum inside a bit or behind the striker. I'm happily admit I'm looking for positives because I'm getting thoroughly sick of hating the club and the players.

I like him too. We just need to stop the nonsense of playing him on the right. Stick him on the left and have him prioritise beating his man to deliver a ball into the box, as opposed to having to cut in from the right to shoot all the time.

 

It's been so long we've had a winger, I think it will be a breath of fresh air. Mitrovic really needs one to get more out of his ability too.

Wouldn't at all be surprised if we sign Townsend and Perez ends up at Spurs in the summer.

 

Some sort of shite 'gentleman's agreement'.

 

Aye - can see this happening all day long.

 

I know about 7 or 8 'proper' Spurs fans and every one, independently, has said we'd be mad to take him. Literally, not one of them rates the bloke.

There's absolutely no suggestion that he can do any of that though, his entire career has been based on being a really really shit version of Robben.

Spurs are so blessed with quality attacking midfielders though. I'm sure their opinion is affected by that. We have not long ago played the likes of Gouffran and Cisse in wide positions. Think he'll be a good signing.

 

Just the fact that it's another person in an attacking position with pace and a decent strike would alone be massive for us.

Sure he played on the left originally. No reason why he wouldn't be able to. Most wide players can play on their stronger side.

A Twitter account says we are going to try something unthinkable, these people are always 100% correct aren't they ?

 

Raise Godzilla

Not necessarily, a lot of them are more comfortably cutting inside and shooting.

Doesn't mean jack shit. I know so many many proper Newcastle fans and they are thick as pigshit.

Not a Townsend fan at all and he's overpriced (as if that matters anymore).

 

He cuts in from the right but no way is Sissoko budging, so we're putting him down the left? Maybe that has potential, none of this cutting inside bollocks.
